Gallen eyes a return to form as Arizona holds off Philadelphia 4-3, riding a sixth-inning rally and a shutdown bullpen to keep postseason dreams alive. Blaze Alexander starts the rally with a double, James McCann follows with a run-scoring double, and Ildemaro Vargas delivers the go-ahead RBI single to push Arizona ahead. The D-backs bullpen locks it down, with Curtiss closing out the ninth for the save in a tense finish.

Arizona faces Philadelphia in Phoenix as Diamondbacks shake up their late-season plan. A MLB debut call-up, a 10-man bullpen, and a four-man rotation for the final nine games shape the arms map while Abner gets his first big-league outing. The D-backs lean on Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll to spark the lineup, with Adrian Del Castillo and Alek Thomas providing depth as the prospect narrative grows. Expect bullpen-heavy late outs and careful usage with an off day shaping weekend rest dynamics.

Lineup notes tilt toward power and speed from the Phillies with Bader in CF, Harper at 1B, and Schwarber as DH, backed by Realmuto and Stott. The D-backs counter with a mix of power and contact from Bohm and Del Castillo, plus Tawa and Wilson pieces in the middle. Stranger Things Night adds a local buzz, but the on-field focus remains on bullpen strategy, rotation timing, and the evolving late-season grind for both clubs.

This week's focus is on MLB prospects likely to impact Fantasy Baseball leagues as the season unfolds. While spring training has highlighted some players, many opportunities will arise as the regular season progresses. Key prospects like Roman Anthony of the Red Sox, Zac Veen from the Rockies, and Zebby Matthews of the Twins have shown promise at Triple-A. Anthony's versatility could see him called up if injuries strike the Red Sox infield. Veen, despite facing roster competition, continues to impress with his speed and bat. Matthews, while not typically classified as a prospect anymore, has posted stellar minor league stats, positioning him as a potential call-up in the Twins' rotation.

Other notable mentions include Dalton Rushing from the Dodgers, who may find himself in a backup role due to injuries in the team's lineup. Similarly, Nick Kurtz's performance at Triple-A raises questions about his future with the Athletics, as he is excelling but lacks a clear pathway to the majors. Keeping an eye on these players could pay off significantly as the season progresses, especially in Dynasty leagues.
